Today is off to an amazing start. We had the privilege of touring the beautiful Planned Parenthood health center in downtown Providence, RI and meeting some of our caring clinicians, security staff and volunteers. So inspiring and a great reminder of why we are here!
This morning's crowd in the parking lot of the health center was the Truth Tour's biggest crowd yet – the Providence rally was huge and spirited and everyone was there with a purpose.
Judy Tabar, inspirational CEO of Planned Parenthood Southern New England, stepped up to the podium and called us to action. Shortly after, she introduced Rabbi Stein who spoke passionately about Planned Parenthood's commitment to the health and well-being of women in a dignified, respectable and safe atmosphere. Center clinician Jessica spoke about what an honor it is for her to bring quality care to the women of Rhode island -- and one of those patients stepped forward (with her daughter at her side) and told of the amazing care she has received at her local health center through the years.
It's hard to believe the end of this tour is quickly approaching -- a bittersweet feeling for us all. We're currently on US-93 and just about to exit for our last stop today: Manchester. We would LOVE if you could be apart of the action and join us at:

The anti-women's health extremists behind the push to bar Planned Parenthood health centers from federal funding have been spreading lies. The Planned Parenthood Truth Team — staff, patients, and supporters — are there to counter their lies with the truth and to demonstrate just how much support we have in communities and online.
